When you print invoices and packing lists you can pickup the standard order information using the macros defined in the Invoice and Packing List Options.

In addition to these macros you can define others. These are replaced with the values just before printing. A macro can contain company information defined in the Company Details options. You can also display different values for different field values. This can be used to display a different PPI (1st or 2nd class) based upon the shipping choice. This is explained at the end of this section.

Several default Macros are defined. These provide information to be put into the default invoice and packing list templates.

You can edit or delete the existing macros. You can also add your own macros. If you add or edit a macro you are shown the following screen.

Macro to use:
The text that appears in the Invoice or Packing List. If this appears the Value is replaced. You can enter your own macro names if required (you will need to add the values to the Invoices etc.)..

NOTE: These macros can also be used in Emails and Online Tracking.

Description:
The description of the macro. Default macros are created. You can also add your own. Use text that is meaningful to the person entering values.

Value:
The value that will be used when replacing the Macro. This can be text or a text, html or image file.

Text
The Macro is replaced by the text. NOTE: The Value can contain other Macros. For example, Ebay Info:[%FEEDBACK_LEFT%], [%FEEDBACK_RECEIVED%].

Local Filename
If the filename is an image file the file is displayed. If the file ends with .txt, .html or .htm the file is copied into the Invoice or Packing List. This can be useful for standard information, for example, your terms and conditions.

When you are using images from files and are using a networked version of One Stop Order Processing you should make sure that the files are available on your network. A good way to do this is to put your files into your C:\OSOP\Main directory (folder) and reference the files using the network path. An example of how to do this is described below:

Internet Filename (weblink)
This is an image on a website (.gif, .jpg, .jpeg, .png). For example your company logo. It is a good idea to use an image from a website if you are using this for sending emails as the image will not be attached to an email, but a website link will be displayed.

Only use this Macro if:
If you only want to use this macro value under certain conditions you can use this option. You can test a particular value of the order being printed. The values to check are:

If you wish to use your own order processing procedures you can use the custom order values.

Example, how to use a different PPI for orders.
If you define the 3 following macros, you can display a different PPI for 1st Class, 2nd Class and nothing for internatioal orders.
